Item 224: Autographed Copy of FIND ME IN HAVANA, Donated by author Serena Burdick; Hardcover; Historical Novel; Estelita Rodriguez rose from singing in nightclubs in Cuba to becoming one of the Latina stars of 1950s Hollywood. She lived a glamorous and dramatic life before her death at age thirty-seven. Throughout all this, she only had one child, Nina, who years after her mother’s death would speak with Serena Burdick about their complicated relationship. Out of that conversation would come Find Me in Havana, a novel that weaves together the voices of mother and daughter into a tender narrative, painting a picture of how one woman’s fight to live the American dream cannot be just about that woman but must involve all those around her.
